The detail
Commonly known as Coral Bells, these compact perennials form tidy, evergreen or semi-evergreen mounds of intricately patterned leaves in a spectacular palette of silver, lime, bronze, red & deep purple. Each variety brings its own character: some glow like jewels in shaded corners, others add dramatic depth with near-black or fiery tones. In summer, slender stems rise with airy sprays of soft pink, cream or white blooms, adding gentle movement & attracting pollinators.
Each plant is supplied as a healthy, fresh & fully established 2L rootball—professionally grown in premium peat-free compost & hand-raised at our Yorkshire nursery. Larger & stronger than smaller starter plants, they arrive garden-ready with vigorous roots & vibrant foliage, ready to thrive on arrival. Adaptable, low-maintenance & fully hardy down to –20°C, Heucheras return reliably year after year with minimal care, making them a favourite for gardeners seeking long-lasting beauty & sustainable planting.
